G protein-coupled receptor MRGX2 also known as MAS-related GPR member X2 is a protein involved in signaling processes. This receptor has a mass of around 37 kDa and is part of the large GPCR family known for transmitting signals from outside to inside the cell. MRGX2 expresses primarily in sensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglia and skin mast cells where it plays a significant role in sensory perception and inflammatory responses.
Biological function summary

MRGX2 functions by interacting with a variety of neuropeptides and small molecules acting as a mediator of itch and pain. This receptor is involved in mast cell degranulation making it a part of the immune response complex. It helps regulate the release of histamines and other inflammatory mediators contributing to the body's defense mechanisms against various stimuli.

Pathways

MRGX2 is an essential component in the G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway particularly influencing the PI3K/AKT signaling cascade. This pathway includes interactions with related proteins like phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 and AKT1 which are important for cell survival and growth. MRGX2's involvement in these pathways underlines its importance in mediating responses to allergic and inflammatory triggers.

MRGX2 has been implicated in chronic pruritus and atopic dermatitis conditions marked by persistent itch and inflammation. Its interaction with other receptors such as the histamine H1 receptor demonstrates its role in these dermatological issues. Understanding MRGX2's role and related pathways offers potential therapeutic targets for managing these skin disorders effectively.

General info

Function

Mast cell-specific receptor for basic secretagogues, i.e. cationic amphiphilic drugs, as well as endo- or exogenous peptides, consisting of a basic head group and a hydrophobic core (PubMed : 25517090). Recognizes and binds small molecules containing a cyclized tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ), such as non-steroidal neuromuscular blocking drugs (NMBDs), including tubocurarine and atracurium. In response to these compounds, mediates pseudo-allergic reactions characterized by histamine release, inflammation and airway contraction (By similarity). Acts as a receptor for a number of other ligands, including peptides and alkaloids, such as cortistatin-14, proadrenomedullin N-terminal peptides PAMP-12 and, at lower extent, PAMP-20, antibacterial protein LL-37, PMX-53 peptide, beta-defensins, and complanadine A.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Mas subfamily.
